Officials in two New York counties have denounced Democratic New York City Mayor Eric Adams for relocating illegal immigrants to their communities and have declared an emergency over the situation.

New York City has become one of a number of receiving points for illegal immigrants being bused from Texas border communities to other parts of the country. Republican Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has been sending busloads of illegals to other states as a way to alleviate Texas’s own burden caring for and housing them.
